Mia has been doing fabulous, and her first Halloween parade at school was a hit! Treatments are moving right along. And I am also happy to report my mother is progressing very well since being home. With my father away for hunting, I have had a good time spending girl time with my mom. Thank you all for the well wishes for my mom. We are all blessed to have all of you in our lives and we thank you for you encouragement
